So. I am here, wondering.

Have you won anything already? Yes? How long did it take for you to won your first gift?

Took me around 800 tries to get my first gift! It was so crazy to enter on the website and see that crazy cat on my screen :-)

How about you?

BTW, don't mind the pool tittle...

Longest Streak Without Wining Anything?

View Results
One Try, One Win
2 - 10

101 - 500
501 - 1000

5001+

My first ever entry was a win only because about 30,000 people entered into a 100,000 gift giveaway. It's hard to count that. My longest streak without a win is probably in the 101-500 range though.

2-10. That was the only giveaway I have won so far. Well, I won another one, but the guy didn't give it to me and he got a ban for 2 weeks for re-gifting as soon as I won. *Insert Bad Luck Bryan picture"

Thank you very much :)

My 1st win was after 500 entries. Nowadays it's on average once per 21 entries.

I got lucky and won on the 2nd day I was here, it was the 32nd giveaway I entered ^^
Don't know how long was my longest streak without winning, but I win on average twice a week and my win/entered ratio is 1/175

I entered a lot of public giveaways at first before I discovered the forum. Then I started entering the puzzle and cake day events. Soon after that I won my first giveaway. The only giveaways I've won are ones from the forums.

I don't really consider that a public giveaway since I got the link through the thread that was linked in the giveaway. Here have a blue heart for pointing that out though and for giving more than you got.

I figured, saw the link in the giveaway but it's technically public.
Don't whitelist me for something like that. I appreciate it, don't get me wrong, but I don't deserve a whitelisting for something like that. :)

What for giving more than you get?

Nah, for telling you that one giveaway was public and there are people much more deserving than I am when it comes to giving more than winning.

Currently, I have 2 wins for around 300 entries. xD

Numbers are approximate:

25 entries until I won my first.
Second win came after a further 125.
125 fruitless entries again until I hit my third.
Fourth win came after a 775 winless streak, and I don't believe I've gone higher since as I joined my first groups right around then.

7th entry won.
Then I didn't win again until 61 entries later.
Then 457 entries.
Then 308 entries.

After 833 entries (to public giveaways), I had won 4 games. The frequency seems to have only increased since then. I'd say that I seem to win more often than I (statistically) should.

Hmm, well, I have 1500+ entries listed here, and had another 800+ on the old version of the site before the transfer that didn't carry over, so that would put me in the 2001-5000 range without a win. I tend to only enter giveaways for games I'm actively interested in playing, which are often popular, so that worsens my odds, but I've lost my share of smaller entry pool giveaways as well. We'll see if I can go for the 5001+ category :P

I only enter games I'm sure I'll play, so I'd be pretty happy if I'd win them. It was only a joke though, I knew what you meant and even though I probably wouldnt join for those games you won I'd do the same thing in your situation.

I have four categories: "Oh, god, no", "I might try to get it on sale", "That one looks cool", "I'm trying to get that with everything I have".

Since I barely ever win (based on my ratio), I try to enter the last one. If I do win something I want it to be something I really want, because chances are I probably won't get another opportunity to win it.

I won my first gift rather quickly (after 400-500 entries), as it was a DLC to an unpopular game.

The general consensus for most people is about 1K entries, depending on the exact types of giveaways a person enters. Although, new users are less likely to be entering anything but Public Level 0-1 giveaways, so there is some consistency to it.

I've won my first giveaway only a bit after reaching a total of 1,000 entries.
I now have 42 wins for 3,598 entries, which is extremely good. But to be honest, I only bother entering giveaways with higher odds. :P

What is a "pool tittle"?

9 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm pretty sure that with "Pool", she meant "Poll", which, by definition, is a survey that you propose to ask individuals about certain matters with multiple answers. Regarding tittle: "A tittle or superscript dot is a small distinguishing mark, such as a diacritic or the dot on a lowercase i or j." But I'm pretty sure she meant title... which leads us to the following conclusion:

Your answer wasn't of serious nature and yet I took time to bother about it. Plus, English is a very vicious language which can confuse even the kindest of souls.

Have a good day (:

My first gift was given to me when I was born. I didn't enter that giveaway, technically it was my father who did.

Well, I've been here for six months and 238 entries (since I only come on the website sporadically and I only partake on games I really want).

But well, I've finally started my first give away and all I can hope is to soon win something back in return (:

idk how many entries it was, but I know it was 3 months after I joined. I've won about 12 more since and I've been giving away a lot of bundle games in my time here.
